i'm guessing the covers i got are for a bumper without the actual headlamp washers cause i really can't see how they'd fit.
but for once the internets are letting me down in terms of looking up part numbers |

Not being in front of the car they do look like they line up. No clip maybe that's missing? Logic would say it "should" just clip on and clip off as I see very few other ways to install/remove them without damaging the paint. And here is a Porsche method I came across. Google machine isn't revealing much...

they 'fit' they just don't clip onto anything.... i have the impression they just don't align, which is why i think there's a different cover for the the version that contains the washers (which doesn't make sense b/c the bumper without the washer doesn't need cover)
anyways, will swing by toyota tomorrow and see if they can figure it out. |

They should clip straight onto the washer nozzle if I'm not mistaken.

Something looks broken inside the pic of the washer slot. Is there some remnants of the old washer covers in there?

BTW.
You have to pull the washer out and clip the cover onto that. It doesn't actually clip onto the bumper.

No problem. Just pull them out gently.

i had a closer look, and pulled out the washer and it seems there is a piece missing after all @sav: do you know if this is part of the washer or is it some kind of plug that connects both the washer and the cover?
if the former i might have to replace the washers... |
